Price: - Item location: Snohomish, Washington, United States
Description:

1992 Volkswagen Corrado

Selling my Fully Built 12V VR6 Corrado. The car has 8K Miles on the new motor and 140K on the chassis. This is my 10th Corrado and I've put all my experience into this build. I've replaced/upgraded every known issue on the 12V vr6 engine to build a bullet proof engine that pulls hard straight through redline. I had the engine fully built in prep for a future turbo package. As it stands the car has a 263 sport cam set and is way quicker than my 911.
It features it's original black paint in 8-10 condition with a few scratches on the hood from previous owners. All systems function correctly (wing/sunroof). The interior is a Red Dot cloth and is 9-10 condition with minimal wear, no holes, rips or tears in any of the fabric. The only interior issue is that PO pulled the fabric off the sunroof - a common Corrado problem (see photos). The PO had installed the Neuspeed catalog of parts (P-Flow intake, cross brace and chip). The car has the winter package (heated mirrors/seats)

This car rips, it's super fun to drive and can be enjoyed as is or you can add your own Turbo package as the motor is ready for it. I've decided to focus on my racecar and get this car into another enthusiasts hands. I have photos of the entire tear down and rebuild as well video of the car pulling and the previous engine running before I pulled it out. I'm a backroads driver. Don't race/hard launch the car, I just love driving it. This is a drivers car, and intended to be driven as such. The body has a few dents (see photos), some scratches in the hood (see photos) and, a cracked (pass side) windshield (2 new onesbut all in all - for a Corrado - This is an awesome starting point for someone looking to build a monster of a car. I left the interior in it's natural state - driven - to show the car as is.
It is a Corrado, it's a 1992 car and has the quirks that come with a car of that make and age. It is sold "as-is" but is describe as clearly as possible with the photos to show the condition as best as possible. Clean and Clear title in hand.
